We had a wonderful first week with our funded students. We spent the week working on the routine of school and we are looking forward to the rest of our students joining us next week!
Our week was fairly relaxed with a lot of time devoted to playing, exploring the classroom, and getting to know each other. Visiting the gym and playing in the ball pit were two highlights for our students this week.
Our theme to start off the school year is Pete the Cat. If you are unfamiliar with this cool cat, I strongly recommend all of this books! This week we focused on the book Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes by Eric Litwin.
After reading Pete's story we chose our favorite shoe from the book and had fun painting Pete's shoes either red, blue, or brown.
Park Play
Park Play
In Pre-K we often end our day at the park. I have created signs to hang on the front door of the school that will help parents know where to find us at pick up time. The signs will designate which park we are at and have an arrow to point you in the right direction. Please try to get in the habit of checking the front doors for a sign when you are picking up your child. If there is no sign, that means we are inside and will come upstairs at home time like usual.
